How to use formatDateTime function?

Posted on by 7

I am trying to format a timestamp using the formatDataTime / utcNow function.</p>
<p>How do I input (type out) the command to do that? In my screenshot, I just get that command as a string, not as the formatted data/time.

    Hey @YeahNah 

    Can you please try increasing your screen resolution...

    After increasing the width of the browser window the UI renders as needed allowing you access to the expression tab:

    Hi Jay,

     

    Thanks for this. I spent a long time trying to work out why I couldn't see the Expression options.

     

    Kind regards,

    Joris
